Veronica's birthday party was truly held with great fanfare. Veronica who became the star already looks amazingly beautiful. The invited guests have arrived, all from socialites and some of them are former good friends of Alana who left Alana when the Alana family fell bankrupt.
Veronica welcomes guests who come while looking for David's whereabouts are unseen. Don't tell me David really didn't come because his plan was going to fail miserably. Veronia searches for David while passing the invited guests and overhears the conversation of Alana's former friends who are gossiping about Alana.
"Hey, do you know where Alana is now?" ask one of them.
"Of course, no one knows where he is. After he went bankrupt, he disappeared. What are you looking for? Do you want to help her?" ask the others.
"helpful? No kidding! Don't let him make it difficult for me. He used to have a lot of money but now? Don't let us hit the poor like him!"
"You are cruel!' they all laughed, after giving that spicy sneer to Alana. They laugh at what happened to Alana when Alana was very good to them before but none of them remember Alana's kindness.
Veronica who heard him stepped closer to them, it was interesting. It seemed like he could humiliate Alana in front of those former companions.
"Hi, I'm sorry if I interject but I know where Alana Meyer is. Do you want to know?" ask Veronica.
"Don't get close to him, Vero. What if he borrowed money from you? Look at your fancy birthday party, she'll definitely envy you."
"Right, I think he's a bum now!" the other lips and they laughed. Veronica laughed, if Alana was at her birthday party right now, she would definitely be embarrassed to death and she was sure Alana would not have any more face she could show.
"Thank you for worrying about me but he's not that different from what you're saying and do you want to know what he's doing right now?" veronica.
"What's? Is he a garbage collector?"
"No, I think he's the trash!" the spicy scorn of the businessmen's daughters did not stop and their laughter was heard again. Veronica was really happy, she was already impatient to humiliate Alana through them later.
Veronica talked to them for quite a while, a promise they had made later. The candle blow event was already going to take place, Veronica looked annoyed because David had not yet been seen even though she wanted David to be by her side while she was blowing candles.
"Why hasn't David arrived yet, Grandma?" veronica asked David's grandmother.
"Maybe he's a little late, you better not delay the show!"
"Alright," although upset because David was not also seen, would not want a candle blow event was done. A round of applause and congratulations were given to Veronica.
Veronica also got a lot of gifts but the one she was waiting for had not come yet. David who accidentally arrived late just appeared, of course the boisterous voice at the party was heard of course from the girls who admired David. They did not expect that man would come. Veronica who was waiting was very happy, hurriedly approached David and hugged his arm so that people knew that David was hers.
"Why did you just come, David?" veronica asked spoiledly.
"Busy, this is for you!" David gives a gift chosen by Alana to Veronica.
"busy? Is it because the waiter doesn't know you are?" veronica asked in a slightly loud voice.
"Shut up, Veronica! I'm done, I'm leaving!" said David.
"Wait, David!" between the grandmothers, "You just arrived but you're leaving already, don't you want to honor grandma?" ask Grandma.
"I'm busy, Grandma!" david answered reasoned.
"No way, don't go anywhere!" prevent grandmother.
"Don't do it, David. You're really mean, I haven't even given you a piece of cake yet" Veronica said.
"No need!" David brushed off Veronica's hand and walked away. Veronica was so upset, she became embarrassed that David treated her like that.
David sat alone, he did not want to be bothered by anyone. A glass of drink became his friend, David was thinking about what happened to him. She wanted to know, why did she always want to kiss Alana? Why does she always want to tease Alana? Something was wrong with him, he knew it.
Drinks in the sip until it runs out, David notices the people at the party doing nothing. That's enough, he better get home.
"Sir, the lady called you and asked you to meet her" said a servant sent by her grandmother to call David.
"Come with me" the waiter asked.
David left, after seeing his grandmother he would go home. The servant took him into a room where his grandmother and father were waiting with his father's second wife. David seemed reluctant, he could imagine a quarrel.
"Why gather here and ask me to come?"
"There's something important that grandma wants to talk to you about" said her grandmother.
"What else, Grandma? I've come according to Grandma's request so what else do you want to discuss?"
"Dolent boy, can't you sit still and talk to us!" his father shouted angry.
"I know what you're talking about so don't get stale!"
"David, take care of your attitude. We want to talk to you about something so sit down" said her grandmother.
"Alright, say!"
"When are you going to propose to Veronica?" ask grandma.
"What's? What kind of question is that? Why would I propose to Veronica?"
"He's known to us for a long time, David. Veronica has also liked you since childhood so only she deserves to be your wife!"
"Omong is empty, I just think of him as a friend. There was no special feeling between the two of us!"
"Don't argue, David. Set a date and apply for him!" father's orders.
"If Daddy likes him so much why doesn't Daddy just propose to him and make him Daddy's third wife?"
"David!" his father shouted out loud due to emotions.
"Enough, David. Why can't you accept your mother?" ask her grandmother who also started to get emotional.
"He's not my mom!" david answered while looking at his stepmother sharply.
"Enough, David!" his father shouted angrily, while his wife looked down.
"It's been... No, no emotions. Drink this," the grandmother took a glass of the drink on the table and gave it to David.
"We just want you to get married soon and the right candidate for you is Veronica."
"I told you, I don't have any feelings for Veronica!"
"If so, is there another candidate?" ask grandma.
"Nothing!" david answered, but somehow he remembered Alana.
"We're out for a minute!" his father said as he moved in with his wife.
David gulped his drink down, he was not suspicious at all. Her grandmother moved, pretending to take something but actually she was about to call Veronica a perfect conspiracy.
The drink in the glass was gone, David saw the clock in his hand. He'd better go home than be at the party. David moved but suddenly he felt his head dizzy, David sat back down. Shit, what's wrong with him?
He felt increasingly strange, his body felt hot. David looked around, then looked at the glass of drink in hand. Damn it, don't say it? When she realized something was wrong with the drink, Veronica went inside and locked the door.
